We often think we only get what we deserve but actually, you can have so much more if you only have the courage to take it. Our limiting beliefs stop us from doing the things we think are not meant for us.

In this episode, I talk about how I struggled with limiting beliefs and go into the expansion and contracting phases of a musician. I give examples of my own life where I took it slow and recovered, and also examples where I got shit done and pushed myself to the limit.

In this episode we discuss creativity. Where does it come from, why do some people seem more creative than others? Is there a secret way to become more creative? These are questions a lot of artists might ask themselves. I use the book by Rick Rubin, "The Creative Act: A Way Of Being" to debunk some of those questions.

In this episode, I go over some basic business lessons I learned during my 2 years of running my own company of social media marketing and being a financial consultant for a German insurance/financial company. There is not a big difference of being a musician or an entrepreneur. In fact, there are a lot of similarities. Conservatories don't teach this kind of business lessons, but for upcoming musicians, these basic marketing and sales rules are key for your success.

In this episode I talk about the unpleasant feelings of frustration and helplessness we musicians sometimes go through. Our craving for attention and seeking validation from others. How we think that everyone else has their shit together and how we seem to be the only ones struggling. I hope you can relate to some of the things I go through. Enjoy!

In this solo episode, I speak about my orchestra workshop experience from last week, organized by the Belgium Cello Society. It is a more technical terms-based episode, but I try to make it understandable also for the non-professional musician. We go deep into different orchestra excerpts, we listen to music, and talk about the audition mindset.
